Re: Fitting a voltmeter

Well it has lit up properly. I will try and switch the wires over tomorrow and see if I get any different reading

silver trim to headlights

I have taken off my front headlight grill to give it a bit of a touch up. but have now noticed a half inch gap that runs all the way around.

can this be filled with a piece of trim similar to what the golf gti had in red around it.

if so does anyone know where I can get this from??
